Hi everyone. It's been a long time I thought I would say hello.
I'm looking forward to the annual Borrego Fest!
So what the fudge have I been doing? Well back in April I hurt my knee surfing and the doctor told me to help rehab it do the following:
Ride my bike, change my diet, loose some weight!
I listened and started riding about 40 miles every week. Well about 4 weeks ago while out on a road ride I was cut off by a car while riding at full speed down a hill in a bike lane. I thought my life was coming to a quick end when I tboned the side of the car and went human pinball thankfully towards the sidewalk. I had cuts and bruises and amazingly, no broken bones.
Needless to say I don't ride street anymore and I ended up getting
a brand new full suspension mtn bike out of the accident.
Obviously this accident had a huge impact on the way I live my life. I'm in the moment and living every day to the fullest.
Back in April when I hurt my knee I was at 228lbs! Yesterday after my 10 mile ride through glorious single track out. In mission trails regional park I weighed in at 204lbs! Ya I have lost a double chin or two. I want to get to 195 and then possibly below 190lbs.
In the future I want to mtn bike Kokopeli and part of the Mojave rd.
I look forward to seeing old friends at Borrego Fest.
